We travel deep into a tropical cloud forest in stunning Boquete, Panama, where we meet armadillos, sample the world's most expensive coffee bean and visit a small but thriving Jewish community center.

This time: 

  • Landing on David: Not as painful as it sounds
  • Morton's: A kosher bakery and café in paradise
  • In the footsteps of pumas, pumpkins and CROCS!!!!!!!
  • How to get there, where to stay and the kosher lowdown
  • The world's most expensive coffee. Go on, take a guess!
  • Meeting the cloud-forest rabbi and rebbetzin
  • Bees, butterflies and honey
